Costa Blanca North
Monte Pego is widely recognised as one of the most stunning locations in the picturesque Costa Blanca North. The World Health Organisation has proclaimed the Costa Blanca North as having “one of the most environmentally perfect climates in the world.” The area has stunning natural beauty, mountains, beautiful rural Spanish villages, an amazing coastline with white sandy blue flag beaches, orange groves, olive terraces. The area has not been spoilt – unlike the Costa del Sol with its huge swathes of ugly, unfinished developments running like scars throughout the area which is not as scenically beautiful anyway. The small coastal towns of Denia and Javea remain traditionally Spanish and discerning people who have chosen to have their Spanish villas in this area tend to be environmentally aware and respectful of that natural beauty. Here we still have a fishing industry, fruit growing and wine bodegas, natural mountain springs, waterfalls and although the attractions of modern cosmopolitan life are never far away it is possible to live in a less stressful, peaceful environment and enjoy the natural attractions of the area.
